Lilly Pulitzer for Plus? Pul-ease!



I wasn't going to do it, guys- I really wasn't but then everyone got on the bandwagon and now here I am. On the bandwagon. Like a chump. Ok, so I'm not really a chump and I've mentioned my distaste for the brand before so this isn't out of bandwagon nowhere land. Do I even make sense anymore? Probably not.

Here is what I'm trying to get at: Turns out, a long time straight size brand that focuses on resort wear which temporarily released a plus size line in a cheaped out version for Target doesn't really give a shit about plus size ladies. Actually, not only do they not care about us fatties, but they mock us behind our backs. Color me shocked. I'm appalled, outraged, nauseated! (I sure hope you're reading with the sarcasm I have intended.)

All Black Casual With A Chance Of Spring


A little quickie today! It has literally rained over half of the days this Spring here (aprox 50 out of 80 days). Im. Dying. My cousin and I decided to do a little shopping this weekend and I have to say- the rain is starting to affect me. I didnt want to get up, I didnt want to go do anything but sleep in  my cozy bed and watch Netflix. I decided to take comfort in my love of all black, and layers.

You have seen these pants before, they are my Torrid stiletto skinny jeans (size 24)- but they have faded terribly. I'm thinking its time for a little self distressing to complete the look. The flats are also Torrid from last season- they are a lace crochet and super comfortable (good for our soggy shopping adventures). The tank is a Lane Bryant basic cami with lace, The bralette is Torrid (size 3), belt is Torrid (size 1) and the black cover is just a DDs Discounts find and it is so comfortable! Its actually the second one I've bought (they were like $6) because I tore the first one on accident.

Summertime Shrug-ness


Note: I'm going to leave the whole, "love your arms enough to show them to the world!" argument alone for now because lets face it, not everybody is ready for that nor does every occasion allow it. If you want to free your arms, I really don't mind seeing them but if you'd rather cover them I'm okay with that too.

I'll admit, the title is a terrible pun, but I've been listening to a lot of Lana del Ray lately. (P.S. have you seen the lama del ray meme? hilarious.) My cousin gets credit for this post because she sent me a text that said, "Summer time shrugs. Go." and that is really a pretty great idea so here we are.
